Hereditarily Finite Sets

Famous quotes containing the words finite and/or sets:

    The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite, and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God, so our justice before divine justice.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    It provokes the desire but it takes away the performance. Therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him; it sets him on and it takes him off.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
